The butter cube garnish is optional, but not really.

You could really take things to the NEXT LEVEL by actually *carving a martini glass out of a potato*.

3.This gimlet is just like stuffing, except instead of bread it's just a bunch of gin. Same/same.

The gin is shaken with celery seeds and rosemary. When you drink it, you'll SWEAR you are diving into a huge pan of classic stuffing.

If there's anything more Thanksgiving than floating marshmallows on butterscotch schnapps and then dousing them in 101 proof rum and then lighting them on fire, I don't want to know about it.

½ cup (4 oz.) butterscotch schnapps

½ cup (4 oz.) 101 proof dark rum

lots of large marshmallows

Place butterscotch schnapps and rum in the bottom of a mini cast-iron skillet. Top with marshmallows and light them on fire. If don't want to light your cocktail on fire, go ahead and just pour the schnapps and rum into 4 shot glasses and top each with a marshmallow for serving.

5.If cranberry sauce could get you drunk, it would be a lot more popular.
